The Pirate Bay (TPB) has just declared an IP-driven war against the censorship efforts by the content industry and its lobbies. Sources from inside the group say they are preparing a pretty nasty present for RIAA, BREIN and the other piracy-fighting organizations in form of a potentially endless (and as much uncensorable) number of new IP addresses.

The new IP was in fact put online to simplify the setup of proxy servers through which access the Pirate Bay site, and yet users started to paste the IP address in their browsers’ URL bar to directly reach the P2P site with no proxy in between.

The IP also was an additional burden for the anti-piracy efforts by the Dutch group BREIN, which already obtained a court order to block TPB access in that country. BREIN went to court again to seek a new order, trying to block direct access to the new IP address as well.

But TPB admins are unimpressed by the new BREIN legal assault: “Let me get the next IP-address lined up”, one of the aforementioned admins told TorrentFreak, “we have hundreds, so let’s see (how) many times they will respond”.

The idea is that “Every time they (BREIN) get an order, we’ll add a new one for the next year or so”, the admin said. TorrentFreak describes this new potentially lengthy clash between TPB and the content industry as “an almost endless IP-address whac-a-mole” game.
